It's Bollocks, My Dears, All Bollocks

Ever thought the world has gone mad, what is presented as news is just propaganda generated to divert attention from the complete failure of the elites to deal with problems; modern education dumbs down rather than enlightens, science academics behave more like a medieval priesthood than dedicated seekers of knowledge and understanding, and the media would rather report celebrity gossip than the drift towards global conflict.
You'd be right, it's all bollocks my dears, as we intend to show.

In the months since allegations of sexual abuse against US movie
mogul Harvey Weinstein first emerged, Hollywood stars have been falling
over themselves to condemn him, other 'ladies men' in the industry and
express their support to those who claimed to be victims of sexual
predators. The witch hunt has spread beyond Hollywood first to politics,
then business and now the hysteria has reached such levels all men are
being condemned. The unanimity of the response has been and astounding
example of what the french call Le pensée unique, the single idea. At
the Golden Globe awards last Sunday, an entire galaxy of stars came out
wearing black in solidarity with victims and those who resisted the
demands for conformity were subjected to the obligatory hate campaign.

The Hollywood and mainstream media campaigns, the Le Monde letter
said, had gone beyond exposing individual perpetrators, and had
unleashed a torrent of "hatred against men and sex". Add to that the
usual noise from London's metropoilitan leftie screechers who, supported
by the usual suspects,
The Labour Party, Unite Against Fascism, The Anti - Nazi League, the
Gay BLTs and the tesicularly deficient progressive wing of the
Conservative Party responded with their own Pavolian hatefest. The
people can be relied on to unfailingly respond to the trigger signals.
"Puritanism" was running rampant "like in the good old days of
witchcraft", the French feminists argued, stating that the freedom of
men to pester was "essential to sexual freedom".

Around the world - but mainly among the liberal elites of east
and west coast USA, the shock of dropping jaws striking the ground
registered two point five on the Richter scale and a tsunami of outrage
swamped social media. In France itself there were some strong reactions -
both for and against - but the response was not front-page news and
most people simply gave a gallic shrug and said "Qu'importe".
Those different reactions say a lot about the different ways feminist
view the world in the Anglosphere and Southern Europe France and the
US. "It's hard to imagine a US movie star not being comprehensively
pilloried" for signing such a letter, says Emily Yoffe, contributing
editor for The Atlantic magazine. And that is a key point; the
Politically Correct Thought Police who patrol the internet might get
their knickers in a twist and start raging about diversity when someone
complains about immigrant refusing to integrate but there are many
aspects of diversity followers of the pensée unique are just not willing
to tolerate.

The French women are not the first to break ranks from the politically correct consensus.
In an interview for Business Insider, Matt Damon, star of the highly successful Bourne franchise
drew plenty of virulent ctiticism for expressing quite mild concerns
about the conduct of the #MeToo movement. He said that the majority of
men in Hollywood were not involved in sexual misconduct but this is not
not gaining attention.
"We're in this watershed moment, and it's great, but I think one
thing that's not being talked about is... the preponderance of men I've
worked with who don't do this kind of thing," he said during an
interview while promoting his new film Downsizing.

Many social media users condemned the actor for suggesting not being a
sexual predator was an accomplishment although that is a ridiculous
distortion of what he meant.
It is not the first time Damon has commented on sexual abuse following rape allegations against Hollywood film producer Harvey Weinstein.
Last week in an interview with ABC News Damon said groping and rape
were two different things and shouldn't be treated the same.
"There's a difference between, you know, patting someone on the butt and rape or child molestation, right?" Damon told ABC'S 'Popcorn' with Peter Travers "Both of those behaviours need to be confronted and eradicated, without question, but they shouldn't be conflated, right?"

Criticizing the politically correct zealotry of the #MeToo campaign
may be taboo in the USA and Britain, so why can such views as are
expressed in the letter to Le Monde accepted with so little fuss in
France? One reason, according to Anastasia Colosimo,
a political commentator who lectures in Sciences Politique in Paris, is
author of "Les bûchers de la liberté," (The butchers of Liberty) and is
an enduring influence in France of 1960s-type feminists, steeped in the
free-wheeling ethos of the time.
"A key aspect of the struggle of the 1960s was the need to remove any
guilt attached to feminine sexuality," she says. "Women openly said
they had the same craving for sex as men."

The signatories of the letter also include writer Catherine Millet,
69, best-known for a 2002 memoir detailing her sexual history in graphic
detail. Among the others are Catherine Robbe-Grillet, the author of
sadomasochistic stories, and Brigitte Lahaie, a 1970s porn star turned
talk-show host.
These older feminists see the drive against harassment, which
gathered steam in 1990s America, as a threat to the sexual revolution
their generation has achieved. They accept the need to fight rape and
workplace harassment. But in their view, says Ms Colosimo, activists who
put such dangers at the heart of the modern feminist struggle promote a
view of women "as victims and helpless objects of male desire rather
than free agents".
This contrasts with the Anglosphere where the feminist movement has
been completely hijacked by ugly, hairy - arsed, man - hating lezzas who
are prepared to condemn Harvey Weinstein although he has not yet been
convicted of anything, but simultaneously defend Muslims who rape and sexually exploit white girls, "because Multiculturalism."

The pushback is not just in France however, ridiculous claims from
the gaggle of squawkers in Hollywood and other sectors of the celebrity
circus have alienated more level headed commentators. Novelist Margaret
Atwood has criticized #MeToo, from a different angle, her provocative
article is published in Canada's Globe and Mail newspaper.
The lifelong feminist is singing, if not quite from the same songsheet,
certainy from the same songbook as she complains that a broken legal
system which permits media witch hunts rather than ensuring due process
is observed, thus negating the legal rights of those against whom
allegations have been made but as yet no charges have been laid.

We saw a similar trend in Britain after the crimes of DJ and TV
presenter Jimmy Savile were exposed in 2013 after a police investigation
into evidence of his prolific sexual abuse of under age and vulnerable
people had been in progress for some months. While rumours had
circulated about Savile's behaviour for years, as was the case with Harvey Weinstein,
those who should have acted closed ranks to protect Savile because his
carefully constructed public image made him a cash cow for their media
companies and charities.
As soon as the Savile story gained traction , though he was safe from
legal action having died in 2011, multitudes of attention seekers
started to make #MeToo style allegations against male celebrities most
of which were not supported by any evidence at all. And as in the latest
outburst of politically correct madness names of the accused were made
pubic before any legal process was initiated. The legal rights of those
accused have been ignored by the very people who usually scream most
loudly about "rights".

American novelist Lionel Shriver, is also sceptical about the motivations of those jumping on the #meToo bandwagon. Unanimity in Hollywood, she suggests, is result of risking ostracism by going off-message:
"Given the nature of social movements these days, if you have
reservations you keep your mouth shut."In the social media age, Shriver
adds, "You have one position that's acceptable and everyone piles on to
it. If you express a dissenting opinion, you're going to get
slaughtered."
This has not deterred Shriver, who fully supports the Deneuve line
and regards #MeToo as a "witch-hunt". "We're losing the distinction
between serious sexual assault and even rape and putting a hand on a
knee," she says. "It's as if someone finding you attractive is an
insult. I beg to differ: I'm complimented if someone is attracted to me.
The only question is: am I allowed to say no?"

Last year another major French actress, Fanny Ardant - born in 1949 -
went so far as to say that the campaign against sex pests was redolent
of fascism. Fascism is an accusation that has been levelled at the forces of politically correct authoritarianism in other contexts too, and with good cause.

One of the first things I learned at my Grandfather's knee, as it were, was the importance of free speech and of exposure to different ides and shades of opinion. Grandad had been a member of the Labour party before World War One and had lived through the class wars in the early decades of the twentieth century. My Dad was a Labour man too, until as a newspaper reporter, he learned things about socialism that shocked him.

What dad had discovered was that some time after the 1918 Representationn Of The People Act was passed by the national government under David Lloyd George, which extended voting rights to all men and to women over 30, thus paving the way for the working class vote to enable The Labour Party to compete with The Conservatives and eclipse The Liberal Party, certain elitists, aristocrats, wealthy business people and academics feared their elite social class would lose its grip on power. Led by The Fabian Society these new upper class leaders of the party that claimed it was a grass roots working class movement had only contempt for the working classes, whom they regarded as inferior beings.

George Orwell exposed this soon after it had happened, in the second half of his polemical book The Road To Wigan Pier. Orwell had been commissioned to write a study of the terrible working and living conditions endured by the working classes in British industrial towns. What the wealthy, elitist members of 'The Left Book' club, which commissioned the study, hoped Orwell would produce was an argument for paternalistic socialism, with a government of enlightened, socialist elitists presiding like the Patrician caste of ancient Rome over the ignorant, stupid, ineducable, almost bestial lower orders.

What Orwell did produce was indeed a study of working class life, but he found among them intelligence, sensitivity and a rough edged kind of nobility in the way they endured the privations of life. In the second part of the book however, Orwell wrote an exposé of the patronising, condescending, self righteous attitudes of these wealthy, virtue signalling socialists. And he was probably the first to identify one of the most despicable traits of these people, their inability to tolerate anybody disagreeing with their utopian vision or pointing out the very obvious flaws in their ideas for solving social problems.

This was no trivial matter, just as it was becoming clear that both Germany's National Socialists and Russia's Communists were monstrously tyrannical regimes under which the working classes were as badly off as they had been under the old monarchies, Orwell had revealed that the Fabian socialists rather liked both, particularly Hitler's policy of eugenics. So long as those born to rule continued to rule and those born to toil were kept in their place, The Fabian's idea of Utopia stood.

I became a member of The Liberal Party in the early 1960s, at the time The Liberals in parliament were a tiny remnant of the once great party, but at local level they were much stronger. Though the party had become more collectivist and less libertarian than the party of 1918, it was still possible as a liberal to hold and express an unorthodox opinion. The same was true of Labour, but free speech was a privilege extended only to older members. Among the younger ones hatred of anyone opposed to "the agenda" was starting to become de rigeur.

The left, traditionally the political position of individual freedom, personal development and self - determination has since then continued on its path to authoritarianism.

It is very revealing to observe how opinionated Labour supporters women who dare to stray from the party line are treated by 'new' Left in Britain today? Just fine, provided one stays on message. Dare to dissent and the mask of diversity and benevolence, over which the Left claims to have a monopoly, slips.

The latest name to be added to the list of people in the Labour Party who have fallen foul of Fabian authoritarian for expressing an unsanctioned view is German born M.P. Gisela Stuart, who, it was reported last week, was allegedly reminded that she “had another country to go to” by former press officer to Tony Blair, Alastair Campbell. Her crime: daring to campaign for Brexit (Mr Campbell called the story “truth mangling”).

First, can you imagine the furore had anyone said that to Jamaican born Diane Abbot with regard to her racist, black supremacist view of white people in Britain? Secondly, it has been established beyond doubt by the attitude of the EU bureaucracy to Brexit negotiations and by the performance of the UK economy since the Brexit vote that is was the Remain campaign, supported by Campbell and his crony Blair, that mangled the truth in their campaign. Thirdly, recent events in Europe have demonstrated that the intention of the E.U. was to create a bureaucratic dictatorship that would swallow all member states into a single European superstate.

What adds to the insult is the suspicion that if any Conservative or Liberal Democrat behaved towards dissenters like that, they would risk their career – but that the Left gets away with so much by invoking a philosophical “get out of jail free” card, they are the party of diversity and multiculturalism.

Incredibly, the now suspended Labour MP Jared O’Mara actually said as much a little while ago, when he refused to resign over his own derogatory comments but suggested that had such bile been uttered by a Tory MP, the situation would have been different because Conservatism doesn’t foster “equality and egalitarianism”. Eventually, and reluctantly it must be said, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn was forced by public pressure to act.

What breathtaking arrogance! What stunning hypocrisy! What is the source of this benefit of the doubt the Left is prepared to allow itself but not its opponents? What gives socialists the right to demand that they be held to a lower standard than those to which it holds its opponents? What credibility can this veneer of egalitarianism and tolerance have if its prozelytizers consistently fail to practise what they preach, behave in an increasingly elitist manner and yet continue to take the support of their historic working class constituencies for granted?

The Left’s obsession with the quasi - religious dogma of diversity and equality of race and sex has reduced these important matters to a lazy box-ticking exercise, which a huge section of the population now holds in contempt, ultimately harming the cause of the very groups it claims to be supporting.

If the Left truly values diversity, it must celebrate dissent. People must have the right to oppose same sex marriage, affirmative action hiring policies, academic uplifts for minorities and the promotion of transgenderism in schools. When differing opinions can be houted down and earn those who express them threats of violence, the echo chamber may well sound harmonious, but the while the voices bouncing the walls repeat the same ideas, a dangerous anger is simmering silently on the back burner.

A certain amount is tolerable of course, where things really started to run out of control was when research institutions started to get more money from corporate sources than from private donations, bursaries and philanthropic foundations.

**************

Although good science should always be
reviewed, using this label as a form of credibility can be dangerous,
causing people to dismiss new information and research instantaneously
if it doesn’t have it, particularly when that information counters
long-held beliefs ingrained into human consciousness via mass marketing,
education, and more.

Unfortunately, it’s becoming
increasingly apparent that we are being lied to about the products and
medicines we use on a daily basis.

If you’re one who commonly points to the
“peer-reviewed” label, then you should know that there are
many researchers and insiders who have been creating awareness about the
problem with this label for years.

Climate Science

Many people have spoken up against the
corporatization and politicization of science. For example, Professor
Lennart Bengtsson, a Swedish climatologist and former director of the
Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg, has voiced his concern
that some scientists are, according to an interview given to the Daily Mail,
“mixing up their scientific role with that of climate activist.” He
claims that there are multiple indicators for how “science is gradually
being influenced by political views.” (source)

Professor Joanna D. Haigh, a British
physicist, professor of atmospheric physics at Imperial College London,
co-director of the Grantham Institute for Climate Change, and
former president of the Royal Meteorological Society, has also spoken up
about the politicization of climate science. (source)

The
Australian prime minister’s chief business advisor has done the same,
and so have other politicians, like Senator James Inhofe, chairman of
the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. You can read

Unfortunately, the mainstream vilifies such people, and to great effect.

Medical Science/Health Science/Food

In the case of medicine, a lot of
information has emerged showing just how much corruption really goes on.
The Editors-in-Chiefs of several major medical journals have been quite
blunt, with perhaps one of the best examples coming from Dr. Richard
Horton, the current Editor-in-Chief of TheLancet, who says, “The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue.” (source)

Dr. Marcia Angell, a physician and longtime Editor-in-Chief of the New England Medical Journal (NEMJ), also considered one of the most prestigious peer-reviewed medical journals in the world, alongside The Lancet, has said that “it
is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research
that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or
authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion,
which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as an editor
of The New England Journal of Medicine.”(source)

John Ioannidis, an epidemiologist at the Stanford University School of Medicine, published an article titled “Why Most Published Research Findings Are False,” which subsequently became the most widely accessed article in the history of the Public Library of Science (PLoS). (source)

Here is another great quote:

“The medical profession is being bought by the pharmaceutical
industry, not only in terms of the practice of medicine, but also in
terms of teaching and research. The academic institutions of this
country are allowing themselves to be the paid agents of the pharmaceutical industry. I think it’s disgraceful.”

– Arnold Seymour Relman (1923-2014), Harvard professor of medicine and former Editor-in-Chief of The New England Medical Journal (source)

As you can see, this has been a problem for quite some time.

GMOs

One of the best examples of political
influence over scientific publication comes from an
episode involving Genetically Modified Maize. Monsanto published a study
a few years ago which purported to demonstrate the effects of GMO maize
on rats over a 90 day period. They reported no ill effects on the
rodents from this diet. Given the fact that there are no long term
studies examining the health risks associated with GMOs, independent
researchers then decided to conduct the same study, with one difference:
Their study lasted over a year rather than a mere three months.
Researchers found instances of severe
liver and kidney damage, as well as hormonal disturbances, alongside
the development of large tumours and mortality among the treatment
groups. The study was published in November of 2012, in the Journal of Food and Chemical Toxicology,
and then instantly retracted. After hundreds of scientists condemned
the retraction, the U.S. did not publish it. The study was then
re-published in multiple peer-reviewed scientific journals (in Europe
last year [2014]), like Environmental Sciences Europe. This is why it shouldn’t be a surprise that so many countries in Europe have banned the growing of genetically modified crops. Many also have bans and/or severe restrictions on importing GM products, citing health and environmental concerns.

This fact was also made clear by WikiLeaks documents:

Resistance to the advent of genetically modified foods
has been pronounced across Europe. The continent features some of the
strictest regulations governing the use and cultivation of GMO products,
and public skepticism about biotech goods is quite high – a fact not
lost on American diplomats. In a lengthy report dating from late 2007 , a
cable issued by the State Department outlined its “Biotechnology
Outreach Strategy, ‘which, among other things, recognized the European
Union’s ‘negative views on biology’ and committed as a national priority
to limiting them (O7STATE160639).

Initial attention paid to the State
Department’s part in pushing industrial manufactures on its allies
obscured the even bigger role it played in assuring a place for
genetically modified agricultural products (GMOs) in a region that
largely wanted nothing to do with them. The American campaign promoting
biotech products was a worldwide effort. In all, some 1,000 documents
from the Cablegate cache address this effort, a significant number of
which originate in Europe. U.S. diplomats on the continent gave
considerable attention to insuring the interests of American biotech
firms in Europe – Whether through “education” programs,
government lobbying, or outright coercion – as well as stripping down
European Union regulations designed to act as a bugger against them.
Available cables published by WikiLeaks suggest that the United States
invests considerable time, effort, and expense in its operations on
behalf of the American biotech firms.

In 1996, Steven M. Druker, being a
public interest attorney and the Executive Director of the Alliance For
Bio-Integrity, initiated a lawsuit in 1998 that forced the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) to divulge its files on genetically
engineered foods.

He’s recently published a book on the lawsuit that provides details of his experience. He has also released the documents on his website, showing the significant hazards of genetically engineering foods and the flaws in the FDA’s policy.

There are a number of examples to choose
from here, but antidepressants make the top of the list. Irving Kirsch,
a lecturer in medicine at Harvard Medical School, published a study
pointing out how “analyses of the published data and the
unpublished data that were hidden by drug companies reveals that most
(if not all) of the benefits are due to the placebo effect.” (source)

Another study published in the British Medical Journal by
researchers at the Nordic Cochrane Center in Copenhagen showed that
pharmaceutical companies were not disclosing all information regarding
the results of their drug trials. Researchers looked at documents from
70 different double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) and serotonin and norepinephrine
reuptake inhibitors (SNRI) and found that the full extent of serious
harm in clinical study reports went unreported.

Tamang Sharma, a PhD student at Cochrane and lead author of the study, said: “We
found that a lot of the appendices were often only available upon
request to the authorities, and the authorities had never requested
them. I’m actually kind of scared about how bad the actual situation
would be if we had the complete data.” (source)

Another co-author of the study, Dr.
Peter Gotzsche, who co-founded the Cochrane Collaboration (the world’s
foremost body in assessing medical evidence), found in a separate
analysis that 100,000 people in the United States die each year from the
side effects of correctly used prescription drugs, noting that “it’s remarkable that nobody raises an eyebrow when we kill so many of our own citizens with drugs.” He has published many papersarguing that
our use of antidepressants is causing more harm than good, and taking
into consideration the recent leaks regarding these drugs, it seems he
is correct.

Below is a brief video of him elaborating on this problem:

Vaccines

Vaccines are getting more attention now than ever before. In fact, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Chairman of the World Mercury Project (WMP), recently announced a $100,000
challenge aimed at putting an end to the inclusion of mercury, a
neurotoxin that is 100 times more poisonous than lead, in vaccines
administered in the U.S and globally.

It’s offered to anybody,
including journalists and scientists, who can provide a study showing
that it is safe to inject mercury into babies. This will be difficult,
as hundreds of studies (that were also present at the press conference
in print form) show it is absolutely unsafe, and can
significantly increase the risk of developing neurodegenerative
disorders.

Multiple cases of vaccine fraud have
been uncovered, but this is something you might not know given the fact
that the mainstream media completely ignores these facts, and vaccines
are heavily marketed.

For example, Lucija Tomljenovic, who
has a PhD in biochemistry and is a senior postdoctoral fellow in UBC’s
Faculty of Medicine, as well as a medical investigator, uncovered
documents that reveal vaccine manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies,
and health authorities have known about multiple dangers associated with
vaccines but chose to withhold them from the public. (source)

But perhaps one of the biggest
revelations in medical history, also unfortunately ignored by mainstream
media, came only a couple of years ago and is still making noise, as it
should.

Dr. William Thompson, a longtime senior
CDC scientist, published some of the most commonly cited pro-vaccine
studies, which showed that there was absolutely no link between the MMR
vaccine and autism (Thompson, et al. 2007,Price, et al. 2010, Destefano, et al. 2004). However, Dr. Thompsonrecently admitted that it was “the lowest point” in his career when he “went along with that paper.” He went on to say that he and the other authors “didn’t report significant findings” and that he is “completely ashamed” of what he did. He was “complicit and went along with this,” and regrets that he has “been a part of the problem.” (source)(source)(source)

A study with revised information and no
data omitted was published by Dr. Brian Hooker (a contact of Dr.
Thompson) in the peer reviewed journal Translational Neurodegeneration, and
it found a 340% increased risk of autism in African American boys
receiving the Measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine. The study has since
been retracted, around the same time this controversy arose.

You can read the full study here, although, unsurprisingly, it has since been retracted.

Thompson’s attorneys, Robert F. Kennedy
Jr. and Bryan Smith of Morgan & Morgan, also released a statement
from Dr. Thompson, which mentioned Hooker: “I
have had many discussions with Dr. Brian Hooker over the last 10 months
regarding studies the CDC has carried out regarding vaccines and
neurodevelopmental outcomes including autism spectrum disorders. I share
his belief that CDC decision-making and analyses should be
transparent.” (source)

he had to invoke whistleblower
protection and turned extensive agency files over to Congress. He said
that, for the past decade, his superiors have pressured him and his
fellow scientists to lie and manipulate data to conceal a causal link
between vaccines and brain injuries, including autism.

Final Thoughts

As you can see, scientific fraud is a
big problem across the board, and this article has only provided a few
examples. The problem is not just with GMOs and vaccines — it affects
cosmetics, food, cleaning supplies, and so much more. How have so many
products, which cause so much harm, been approved by the agencies that
are tasked to protect us?

There are so many books on this topic,
but they don’t get the attention they deserve, since the major
mainstream media shareholders are identical to those of the entire
health industry. Why would they bash their own products on their own
national television networks?

The power of corporate America has taken
over almost every aspect of our lives. If you’re wondering what we can
do about it, well, I believe the first step is awareness. There is still
a plethora of information that the general public is completely unaware
of, but if we backtrack to a decade ago, information that used to be
considered a conspiracy is now simply fact. A great example is the
corporate takeover of science, as discussed in this article, but another
one could be the Snowden Leaks on mass surveillance, or 9/11. Studies
are now being published by physicists and engineers regarding that
event.

Awareness makes it harder for the elite
to manipulate us. Once we become aware of something, we can stop it. For
example, look at Genetically Modified Foods and the pesticides that go
with them. As soon as the masses became aware of their dangers, they
began to change their shopping habits. Now, most countries around the
world have completely banned these foods.

It’s difficult to accept that there are
unseen powers, motivated by their own greed and lust for power, that are
doing us harm disguised as good. It is only when we become aware of how
we are being harmed and change our shopping habits — hurting their
bottom line — that they change their tactics. On the other hand, it’s
encouraging to know that once we do come together for a common goal,
anything can be accomplished, and we actually do have the potential and
power to change our world.

https://www.sott.net/article/282777-Debunked-Out-of-Africa-thing-completely-disproved-by-genetics
Scientific evidence which challenges a theory that is held in similar esteem to a religious relic by high priests of The Church Of Scienceology, that modern humanity's African genesis is proven beyond doubt and is common knowledge among those familiar with the most recent scientific papers on the human Genome, Mitochondrial DNA and Y-chromosomes. Regrettably, within mainstream press and academia circles, there seems to be a conspicuous - and dare we say it - deliberate vacuum when it comes to reporting news of these recent studies and their obvious implications to the out of Africa theory.

Such scientific certainties are a load of bollocks of course. For political reasons the powers that be WANT a narrative which proclaims "Weez aalz from Afreekaa," probably to keep onside the African tyrants who mercilessly exploit the people they have power over, while enriching themselves, their families and their loyal supporters from deals they make to allow global corporations to plunder the natural resources of nations they rule. Well unfortunately weez aalz ain't necessarily from Afreekaa, while it is quite possible the first modern humans did emerge in what is now the African continent, there are many other theories equally well (or poorly) supported by evidence, that the leap from Homo Knuckledraggius to Homo Sapiens Sapiens was accomplished elsewhere
Australian historian Greg Jefferys explains, "The whole 'Out of Africa' myth has its roots in the mainstream academic campaign in the 1990′s to remove the concept of Race. When I did my degree they all spent a lot of time on the 'Out of Africa' thing but it's been completely disproved by genetics. Mainstream still hold on to it."
It did begin the early 90's. And the academics most responsible for cementing both the Out-of Africa theory and the complementary common ancestral African mother - given the name of "Eve" - in the public arena and nearly every curriculum, were Professors Alan C. Wilson and Rebecca L. Cann.

In their defense, the authors of this paper were fully aware that genealogy is not in any way linked to geography, and that their placement of Eve in Africa was an assumption, never an assertion.
A more recent paper on a study of Y-chromosomes, published in 2012 and titled (Re-Examing the "Out of Africa" Theory and the Origin of Europeoids (Caucasians) in the Light of DNA Genealogy written by Anatole A. Klyosov and Igor L. Rozhanski) only confirms the denial of any African ancestry in non-Africans, and strongly supports the existence of a "common ancestor" who "would not necessarily be in Africa. In fact, it was never proven that he lived in Africa."
Central to results of this thorough examination of haplogroups was the discovery that there was an absence of any African genes in many ethnically homogenous populations. So lacking was the sampling of African genetic involvement, the researchers stated in their introduction that, "the finding that the Europeoid haplogroups did not descend from "African" haplogroups A or B is supported by the fact that bearers of the Europeoid, as well as all non-African groups do not carry either SNI's M91, P97, M31, P82, M23, M114, P262".
With the haplogroups not present in any African genes and a lack of African genes where there should have been of dozens of African genetic markers, it is almost impossible to make a case for European ethnicities having any link to Africa. The researchers are adamant that their extensive study "offers evidence to re-examine the validity of the Out-of-Africa concept".
They see no genetic proof substantiating an African precedence in the Homo sapien tree, and maintain that "a more plausible interpretation might have been that both current Africans and non-Africans descended separately
from a more ancient common ancestor, thus forming a proverbial fork".

We regard the claim of "a more plausible explanation" as a gross understatement, since there is absolutely nothing plausibly African turning up in any test tubes. In fact, the researchers made note of their repeated absence stating "not one non-African participant out of more than 400 individuals in the Project tested positive to any of
thirteen 'African' sub-clades of haplogroup A".

The only remaining uncertainty relates to the identity of this "more ancient common ancestor". All that can be stated with confidence is that humanity's ancestor did not reside in Africa.
Unfounded accusations of racism have become common as the prevailing Afrocentric hypothesis is constantly being challenged by the growing mountain of conflicting scientific evidence, especially in the evolving field of genetics.

It is now scientifically irrefutable fact that the "human species" has been found to contain a substantial quantity of DNA (at least 20%)
from other hominid populations not classified as Homo sapien; such as Neanderthal, Denisovan, African archaic, Homo erectus, and now possibly even "Hobbit" (Homo floresiensis).
If not given drugs to prevent infant death, the pregnant body of a rhesus negative mother will attack, try to reject, and even kill her own offspring if it is by a rhesus positive man.
The Domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) is a sub-species of the gray wolf (Canis lupus), and they produce hybrids.

There are numerous other examples of where two separate species (for example with different numbers of chromosomes) can also produce viable offspring, yet are considered separate species. That said, humanity has been shown to be, genetically speaking, a hybrid species that did not all share the same hunter-gatherer ancestry in Africa.
Recent sequencing of ancient genomes suggests that interbreeding went on between the members of several ancient human-like groups more than 30,000 years ago, including an as-yet unknown human ancestor.

"There were many hominid populations," says Mark Thomas, evolutionary geneticist at University College London.
Recent genetic studies are touting shocking headlines about how ancient humans 'rampantly interbred' and indulged in inter-species interracial sex with multiple mystery sub-races in a "Lord Of The Rings"-style world of different creatures, including mystery DNA - neither human nor
Neanderthal, not yet identified.

Religion, Science? Will Nothing Shut The Fundamentalists Up?
Since the election of Barck Obama back in 2008 gave the irrational 'rationalists' lists' of the left the notion that they have won all the arguments and were empowered to impose their humanist dogma on everybody and the resurgence of Islamic fundamentalism, there seems to be little room for intelligent discussion of philosophy and metaphysicsScientists Discover A New Human Ancestor
A NEW species of human – the Homo Naledi has been discovered in a cave in South Africa, an international team of scientists have confirmed. The new species was discovered 50 kilometers northwest of Johannesburg, South Africa and is being hailed as the ‘find of the century” by scientists.New Physics Theory Proposes Time Is Disappearing From Our Universe.
I have never understood why we invest so much money in theoretical physics, which basically means blokes with pointy heads sitting around having intellectual wanks as they dream up constantly whackier theories to explain how our universe works. One idea they cling to fondly which I find crazy, is that time is somehow material than can be stretched, compressed, kicked around like a football and made to disappear.Human DNA Shock: David Icke Was Right All The Time
newly published scientific research shows that Mr. Icke may have been right all along. About 30,000 years ago early human ancestors interbred with a species completely unknown to biologists, geneticists and anthropologists it reveals. Has Human Evolution Stopped - Are We Now Masters Of Our Own Destiny
The usual arguments around the topic of evolution revolve on the science versus religion war, did we evolve or were we created? That is really an unsatisfactory debate because unless the ancient texts of many religions are interpreted literally then the Big Bang could have been the result of an act of creation while evolution addresses the diversity of life, not its origin. When we consider the

Ancestors of ancient Egyptians came from Europe and Middle East, says study

Ancient Egyptians were more closely related to people from the
Middle East and Europe than those from Central Africa, according to a
genetic analysis of mummies’ DNA.

A team of international scientists from the University of Tuebingen and the Max Planck
Institute for the Science of Human History in Germany analyzed the DNA
of 90 Egyptian mummies dating from approximately 1400 BCE to 400 CE.

Amazingly, the team’s findings revealed that the mummies’ closest kin
were ancient farmers from the Levant – a historical term for a large
geographic area in the eastern Mediterranean that includes Israel and
Jordan.
The study, published in Nature,
also claims that ancient Egyptians were closely related to Neolithic
populations from the Anatolian Peninsula, an area made up of the
majority of modern-day Turkey and Europe.

“The genetics of the Abusir el-Meleq community did not
undergo any major shifts during the 1,300-year timespan we studied,
suggesting that the population remained, genetically, relatively
unaffected by foreign conquest and rule,” said Wolfgang Haak, from the Max Planck Institutes.
What
is perhaps even more interesting is the revelation that modern
Egyptians are closer to sub-Saharan African populations than their
ancient counterparts, a finding which Stephan Schiffels of the Max
Planck Institutes believes was caused by “an increase in Sub-Saharan African gene flow into Egypt within the last 1,500 years.”

The
research cited improved mobility down the Nile River, increased
long-distance trade between sub-Saharan Africa and Egypt, and the
trans-Saharan slave trade that began around 1,300 years ago.
Some
151 mummified remains were initially sampled from the archaeological
site of Abusir el-Meleq, along the Nile River in Middle Egypt.

Mitochondrial
genomes, DNA passed from mother to child, were recovered from 90
mummies while rare genome-wide datasets, the DNA of both parents, were
acquired from three mummies.

Acquisition of detailed nuclear DNA
has traditionally been difficult due to contamination issues. For this
study, researchers carefully screened the DNA to rule out contamination
from anyone who had handled the mummies since their excavation a century
ago.

Humans evolved 100,000 years earlier than thought and East Africa is not 'cradle of mankind', say experts

Humans
evolved at least 100,000 years earlier than previously thought in
Morocco, palaeoanthropologists have discovered, debunking the theory
that the Rift Valley of Ethiopia was the ‘cradle of mankind.’
The world’s oldest Homo sapiens fossils
- which could represent the first human family - were excavated in a
barite mine at Jebel Irhoud, 60 miles west of Marrakesh, and date to
between 300,000 and 350,000 years old.

There is no Garden of Eden in Africa. Or if there is, it is the whole of Africa.Prof Jean-Jacques Hublin

“Our results challenge this picture in many ways. Very early in the
process we realised the site was much older than anyone could imagine
and we came to the conclusion that the layer richest in hominids around
the site was around 300,000 years, so that was much older than anything
else in Africa.

“These dates were a big wow. This material represent the very root of
our species. So there is no Garden of Eden in Africa. Or if there is,
it is the whole of Africa.”

Fossil
remains were first discovered by miners working at the Jebel Irhoud in
the 1960s, who while digging a new gallery, hit a pocket of reddish
sediment which collapsed, revealing stone artefacts, bone and a skull.
But initial dating suggested they were only 40,000 years old.
However experts were puzzled by the features of the bones which had some modern human traits, but also more ancient brain cavities.
So in 2004, experts at the Max Plank Institute began a painstaking
new excavation to hunt for new fossils and re-date the stone tools using
the latest scientific methods.

Expert says Humans are Aliens—and we were brought to Earth hundreds of thousands of years ago

What if Humans are the aliens we’ve been looking for all
along? According to experts, humans were most likely crossbred with
another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is
one of the closest solar systems to Earth—in the distant past, giving
birth to modern humans.

Tell Al-Uhaymir modern day Iraq, where the ancient
Sumerian city of Kish used to be, archaeologists found one of the oldest
ancient documents on the planet, the tablet of Kish which is believed to date back to the year 3500 BC.
The Sumerian king list states that Kish was the first city to have
kings following the deluge, beginning with Jushur. Jushur’s successor is
called Kullassina-bel, but this is actually a sentence in Akkadian
meaning “All of them were lord”. Thus, some scholars have suggested that
this may have been intended to signify the absence of a central
authority in Kish for a time.
This ancient document is believed to precede the cuneiform writing of
the Sumerians, and the Egyptian hieroglyphs for almost one hundred
years.
Developing the ability to express thoughts through written language
is one of the first ways in which man differed from the animal kingdom.
Five thousand years since, humans have developed electricity, divided
the atom, developed computers, and led man to the moon. We have
achieved things that other species have still not.
No other species on earth can attributure such unique achievements in
such a short period of time. Interestingly, compared to other species
of the earth, our ‘evolution’ is relatively short.
It has been a short period of time, most likely a few million years
since the first hominid walked on Earth. Precisely this is one of the
biggest scientific questions of all times: Why have only our species
emerged to this truly advanced technological intelligence?
Evidently, there is nothing more advanced than humans on planet Earth.
While there are different ‘intelligent’ species on Earth, none of them makes use of technology like us.
Just imagine for a second, if for some reason, mankind had to return
to the jungle, and survive there. Many experts agree that most of them
would not survive for a very long period of time.
Many scientists agree that humans, in addition to their intelligence,
are not very capable to occupy a wide range of environments. In other
words, we are very limited when it comes to our planet.
In addition to our fascinating intelligence, biologists have also
noticed contrasts between human physiology and that of other animals on
earth. Many scientists agree that compared to other species on earth,
humans are rather strange. For example, a baby horse when born, is able
to walk and function almost independently, but this a human baby can not
do, which makes us quite helpless. In other words, we are born before
being neurologically ready for life.
Many researchers agree that there are many vulnerabilities that accompany our intelligence.
Humans on earth eventually became bipeds, which freed up our superior
extremities allowing us to manipulate objects, create tools and much
more. But for all this, experts believe that our species has paid an
expensive price. Lumbar pain a sign that according to many experts could
tell us a lot about our species. Curiously, other animals on Earth do
NOT have this problem. It’s as if only humans are affected by some of
these problems.
So what does all of this mean? According to one expert, it means that we are the aliens we’ve we been looking for all along.
A new theory proposed by Dr. Ellis Silver states that there are several tell-tale signs present in the human race that suggest human beings did not evolve ALONGSIDE other lifeforms on Earth.
The book called ‘Humans are not from Earth: a scientific evaluation of the evidence’
is basically a resume of theories for and mostly against man’s
evolution on Earth. In the book, leading environmentalist and ecologist
Dr. Ellis Silver goes through an evaluation of thirteen leading
hypothesis and seventeen factors which suggest HUMANS ARE NOT FROM
EARTH.
Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the
planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s
environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally
occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more
said Dr. Ellis in an interview.
According to Dr. Ellis, humans might suffer from back pain because
our species initially evolved on another planet with a lower gravity,
adding to the mysteries, Dr. Ellis also indicates that it is strange
that newborns have large heads and make it difficult for mothers to give
birth, which can result in fatalities for both mother and child.
So where do we come from? According to Dr. Ellis, Neanderthals were
most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system
Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth— in
the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.
According to Dr. Ellis, there are millions of people around the globe who ‘feel’ that they do not belong on Earth.
Dr. Ellis explains: “This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may
have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as
a highly developed species. One reason for this … is that the Earth
might be a prison planet since we seem to be a naturally violent species
and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”
Dr. Ellis concludes that mankind did not evolve from that particular
strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as
fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago.
Furthermore, as noted by Robert Sepher, according to modern DNA
sequencing, it is demonstrated that humanity as we know it, isn’t just
ONE single ‘race’ that descended from the same ancestor in Africa, but a
hybridized species, with a far more enigmatic truth behind it all.
Many questions have been raised in the discussion about Rh negative
blood. If mankind did, in fact, evolve from a mutual ancient African
ancestor, theories state that everyone’s blood would be compatible, but
regrettably, this is not the case. This raises numerous questions that
science alone has not been able to fully answer. Where did Rh negative
blood come from? And why is it that a Rh negative mother carrying Rh
positive children tries rejecting her own offspring? Is it possible that
this can be explained by a rather controversial theory? A theory which
suggests that humanity isn’t in fact one race, but a hybridized species.
The book was written by Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History
tells us more about the enigmatic blood type Rh-negative. Not only does
Species with Amnesia suggest mankind is, in fact, a hybridized species,
the author suggests that highly advanced civilizations have been on
Earth before us, just to be destroyed by some great global catastrophe,
as mysteriously, history tells us.Sepehr argues that
for each race that has died out, another has taken its place, with a
selected few holding on to the memories and sacred knowledge of the past
race. In our vanity, we think we have discovered some of the great
truths of science and technology, but we are in fact only just beginning
to rediscover the profound wisdom of past civilizations. In many ways,
we are like an awakening Species with Amnesia, yearning to reclaim our
forgotten past. –
The Basque people of Spain and France have the highest percentage of
Rh negative blood. About 30% have (rr) Rh negative and about 60% carry
one (r) negative gene.
“There are 612 primate species and subspecies recognized by the
international Union for Conversation of Nature (IUCN), and not one has
Rh negative blood”. – Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History

The new fossils, of three young adults, one adolescent and a child of around eight years old, prove that early modern humans were already established at Jebel Irhoud at least 300,000 years ago.
“There is this notion that somewhere in East Africa there is a Garden
of Eden where are species first developed and then spread within
Africa, and outside of Africa,” said Professor Jean-Jacques Hublin, of
the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig,
Germany.

Three new discoveries in a month rock our African origins -
The evolutionary story of modern humans just got more complicated

John Hawkes, Mediu

Four years ago, the story of modern human origins seemed fairly simple. Modern humans originated in Africa sometime around 200,000 years ago. Some modern people spread into other parts of the world sometime after 100,000 years ago, mixing a bit with archaic human groups they met along the way.
New discoveries have shown just how oversimplified this picture was. The common ancestors of today’s modern humans lived a lot earlier than we thought, and we can’t connect them to the fossil record. They were far from alone: Africa was full of other groups, now extinct, and some of them mixed Neanderthal-like into living populations.
The last month has seen more shake-ups to the modern human origins story than any time I can remember. Here’s what we have learned in the last few weeks about this key time period in Africa.
The deepest split
Modern humans share a lot with each other. We’re 99.9% genetically the same, and that impressive genetic similarity comes from inbreeding.
When geneticists first started measuring genetic differences between people, they realized that the population must have once been a lot smaller. They came up with the idea of a genetic “bottleneck”, a period in which the human population might have been very small.
But the last few years have added a lot of complications to this simple picture.
A result from PSMC studies of human genomes from different populations (indicated). The French underwent a clear bottleneck, starting between 100,000 and 50,000 years ago, which was actually shared by all other people outside Africa. But the African populations here had no strong bottleneck. The Khoe-San people in this chart have no sign of a bottleneck at all. From Mallick et al., 2016, doi:10.1038/nature18964
One problem is that the “bottleneck” concept applies mostly to people outside of Africa. They have inherited most of their genes from a small population that grew and dispersed throughout the world. That dispersal carried that signal of a “founder effect” along with it. Those people further mixed a small fraction with archaic humans, the Neanderthals and, for a few, the Denisovans. That founder effect unfolded within the last 100,000 years.
